Chapter 274 Liu Yifei’s golden words come out frequently

"Speak!" Yang Mi's fans shouted.

"Let's wait until the movie breaks 2 million before we talk about it."

Fans on both sides were having a great time fighting.

On the other hand, "Far Cry" has polarized box office and reputation.

"The Douban score is 3.6. I don't understand why you still watch this bad movie?"

"I understand, everyone understands, they are all here to see bikinis."

"The people upstairs understand"

"Far Cry" was terrible, but it still set a new first-weekend box office record for a domestic thriller.

"It's not enough." Although Yang Mi was very satisfied with the box office at this time, in fact, Jordan Chan was almost absent from the film's promotional activities, so she knew how the film was going.

But in the end, she changed her fate against fate.

"As long as it's popular enough, many things will change, including the box office."

Yang Mi squinted her eyes and thought, she needs to use her popularity to attract more fans to watch the film, and use fans to communicate with each other to make the box office higher.
Zeng Jia was very excited. His artist had completely taken off, and even a bad movie could lead to success. You can imagine how powerful this appeal is.

Brother Chen Kai was preparing for a new movie and needed people who could drive the box office to play certain roles. At this time, Yang Mi caught his eye.

He needs a movie with good reputation and high box office to bring back blood.

Yang Mi's popularity and business opportunities are to his liking.

"Communicate with her agent and invite her to audition." Brother Chen Kai said to Chen Hong standing aside.

"Yang Mi? Her acting skills are not good enough to play the role of Yang Jiaqi, right?"

Chen Hong frowned and thought for a while. She had never seen Yang Mi's role in "Far Cry", but her immature acting skills in "Palace" could not afford this important role.

"If Yifei can't afford it for the sake of popularity, it's okay to hire Shu Chang."

Now in the industry, Shu Chang is as famous as other new generation actresses, and her acting skills are not bad.

"I am confident that I can train my acting skills well." Brother Chen Kai has the strong confidence of a great director. Training his poor acting skills to be good can better reflect his ability.

"it is good."

Chen Hong said nothing more.

Whether it is "Martial Arts" or "Far Cry", they are trying their best to take advantage of this period to harvest the box office, because on July 7.21, there is a special effects blockbuster "Transformers 3" coming soon.

The overwhelming publicity, close to 3 million US dollars in North America, and over 6 million US dollars in global box office, as well as the fans accumulated in the first two episodes and the fans gathered from the original IP, gave this blockbuster an unprecedented momentum.

Under Yang Mi's desperate publicity, "Far Cry" has been making great progress. It received 4100 million in the second week and the box office reached 6500 million in two weeks. It has left all imported and domestic thrillers far behind.

You must know that the production cost of "Far Cry" did not exceed 500 million, but the total box office may exceed [-] million, making it another super dark horse.

Then "Transformers 3" was launched in China. At this time, the number of screens has reached more than 8500, which is an increase of 6500% compared with the number of more than 35 screens at the beginning of the year.

Major theater chains have reduced the film schedules of "Martial Arts" and "Far Cry".

On the 21st, the box office of "Transformers 3" was 9121 million.

The box office on the 22nd was 8780 million.

The box office on the 23rd was 1.12 million.

The box office on the 24nd was 9830 million.

The cumulative box office in the four days was approximately 3.94 million, setting multiple new records.

The single-day box office of 23 million on the 1.12rd also set a new single-day box office record for mainland movies, surpassing "The Martian" at the beginning of the year.

"The era of breaking [-] million in a single day is here."

Entertainment media have reported on it.

"I used to wonder when China would hit [-] million in a single day. It's a pity that "The Martian" didn't have enough screens at the beginning of the year."

Han Sanping was a little emotional. He watched the growth of Chinese films step by step. From the past when he was overjoyed when he broke [-] million in a single day, to now when he broke [-] million in a single day, it all seems like yesterday.

"If it breaks over [-] million, it will be given over to it. Domestic movies will surpass this record next year."

Li Mu smiled and didn't care. Records are always meant to be broken. When this record is broken, people will only remember the new film.

"Besides, this movie may not have as much stamina as "The Martian."

"Oh?"

"The more dazzling it is, the more boring it becomes. If you only look at the special effects and don't look at the plot, you will eventually be eliminated. The essence of the movie is the story."

This is also the reason why Hollywood is not popular in China. The plots are getting thinner and thinner, there is no innovation, and they only use special effects blindly, discarding the basics and chasing the last.

"Then how much do you predict this movie will get at the domestic box office?"

Han Sanping has returned to the box office level. After all, no matter how much he says, it is false.

"It is estimated to be no less than 8 million."

"Can it break 10 billion?"

“Quite likely”

This time, the filmmakers in the industry did not cry out and shout slogans that the end was coming. Domestic movies gave them confidence.

"The special effects of "The Legend of White Snake" are not inferior to those of "Transformers 3", don't you believe it? See you at the end of September."

Yang Zi took the opportunity to vigorously promote the film, comparing it to "Transformers 3".

This really confused some people who didn't understand. Of course, those who understood asked disdainfully: "The production cost is 1.5 million. Even if you spend 1 million on special effects, how far can it be achieved?"

"You have to learn from Mengying. Look at how much money Li Mu spent on special effects. Never compare with others."

At the same time, in the North American film market, "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn" launched by Crystal Pictures was released on a large scale in 4 theaters.

"The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn" is the last part of the series, but the fourth part is too long. Crystal Pictures learned from the "Harry Potter" series and divided the last part into two episodes.

午夜首映场的3025万美元票房顺利打败《月食》的3010万美金纪录，但尚不足以撼动《哈利波特7》4350万美金的午夜场纪录，当然一部分功劳要归于巫师的3D外挂。

It grossed US$1.395 million in the first weekend, ranking first for the week with its domineering attitude.

The first-week box office ranked second in the "Twilight" series, behind "New Moon". It also ranked fifth in the first-week box office of PG-13 films in film history.

The total North American market exceeded $2 million, driven by the joint efforts of "Breaking Dawn" and "Happy Feet 2".

The final chapter of the popular teen vampire series and the much-anticipated Bella's Wedding, "Breaking Dawn" unsurprisingly created a "high-level" box office, but the reviews were extremely divided.

"Another bunch of people are trolling "Breaking Dawn."" Liu Yifei said to Li Mu with a smile through David's feedback.

"Breaking Dawn" received a comprehensive media review score of 46 and a Rotten Tomatoes rating of 27%, with 39 thumbs up and 104 thumbs down.

Yahoo critics didn't rate it, and audiences gave it a B+ rating.

"Fucked but not sexy at all, killed people but not bloody at all, the costumes are pretentious, and the story is monotonous and boring. If you ask me, "Breaking Dawn" is definitely the worst Twilight series!" "In that pretty little head, It’s a stupid, indifferent brain without any depth!”

"What's even scarier than the vampires, werewolves and other monsters in the film is the title: Part One, which means that the film, which has been stretched to its limit, still has 'Part Two', which is trembling!"

"I'm used to it. You see, David doesn't even bother to pay attention to them anymore."

In the past, David would spray it back, but now he's used to it, and it doesn't affect Crystal Pictures' money anyway.

"The Twilight Saga", a series that has made countless girls laugh and cry, has finally come to its finale.

However, the data analysis provided by David caught Li Mu's attention.

The good news is that female audiences, the main box office hit of the "Twilight" series, have not decreased. Judging from statistical results, the support rate of female audiences remains high, maintaining a shocking level of 80%.

The bad news is that the audience group is getting younger and younger. The proportion of viewers over 21 years old has gradually dropped from the earliest 65% to 50%. This is not a good sign.

Comparing with the "Harry Potter" series, it can be seen that the proportion of "elderly" viewers of the glasses wizard is increasing over time. This shows that as age increases, a large number of hahahahahahahahahahahaha from teenagers to young adults, but there is no slight change. The tendency to abandon drama.

The situation in "Twilight" is exactly the opposite. As the age increases, the mature audience group is gradually lost.Although new forces are constantly coming in, it is an indisputable fact that "Breaking Dawn" lost to "New Moon".

"Fortunately, there is only the last one left, otherwise the box office of this movie will be lower and lower."

"Transformers 3" grossed more than 3 million yuan in its second week, and its cumulative box office reached more than 10 million yuan in 7 days of release.

The popularity of the movie has given some theaters ideas and they are secretly implementing them.

Later, some netizens posted on Weibo a photo of "Transformers 3" being sold in conjunction with the domestic film "Yang Shanzhou", and questioned whether this was another form of "stealing the box office."

Selling movie tickets in this way means that the audience spent 80 yuan. The film studio of "Transformers 3" will use the 20 yuan to share the bill with the theater, while the film company of "Yang Shanzhou" can share 60 yuan with the theater. In other words, this In terms of tickets, the income of "Yang Shanzhou" is about three times that of "Transformers 3".

"How can we make more money this way?" Liu Yifei asked doubtfully. There were too many sexy tricks in the theater chain, which made people in her circle a little confused.

"Each movie has a different proportion of the theater chain's revenue sharing. "Yang Shanzhou" can allow the theater chain to share more."

This incident caused a lot of controversy, and Paramount was not a vegetarian. Although it said it would not make any comment on the matter, the pressure was still put on the mainland distributor China Film.

China Film Group quickly issued a statement: "No film can 'steal' other people's box office, and this matter will be strictly investigated."

"."

Entering August, the first thing to be released is another imported blockbuster "Harry Potter 8". This one was released in North America in mid-July. With a first-ever debut of about 7 million U.S. dollars in film history, it is like a god. Overlooking the North American box office charts.

In this unprecedented finale, not only did the box office record reach an unprecedented new level, but the film's reputation also shone brightly in film history, ranking as the top seed for Best Picture at next year's Oscars.

"Get ready, 'Those Years'!"

Li Mu is not too fake about "Harry Potter 7". Even if he creates miracles in North America, he may not be popular in China.

In the past few days, Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, Zhu Yawen and others have appeared on major programs one after another. Liu Yifei, who has a great interview syndrome, often makes famous quotes.

A reporter on the show asked:

"Effie, what are your expectations for the box office of this movie?"

"I asked Director Li this question before, and he replied with two words. From then on, I had no expectations."

"Ah? What did you ask Director Li?"

The reporters suddenly became more curious. What were these two words Li Mu said.

Liu Yifei held the microphone and chuckled: "I asked him if 'Those Years' could surpass '2012'? Director Li replied with two words: 'Dream'!"

All of the reporters were suddenly holding back, wanting to laugh but not daring to.

The hosts next to them, Shu Chang and Zhu Yawen, couldn't help laughing.

"Ahem, I can testify that it is indeed the case." Shu Chang shouted with a smile.

"Yifei, do you feel that you are different this time as a director?"

"Yes, for example, my anger when I wake up is different."

"Oh? Did you get rid of this bad habit through becoming a director this time?"

"No, it's just that when I was working as a director, I could get up with anger."

"."

The reporters found it difficult to continue asking questions. It felt like a black hole.

"I can also testify."

Shu's singing voice came weakly.

"Explosion, Liu Yifei expects "Those Years" to surpass "2012", Li Mu responded: Dreaming!"

"Yifei Liu said she has no expectations for the box office of "Those Years" and cannot surpass "2012"."

"Liu Yifei couldn't get rid of her 'waking up anger' during her time as director."

After reading this report, netizens were dumbfounded.

"Oh my god, I'm going to die laughing, how can Li Mu be so straight?"

"Except for "Avatar", who dares to surpass "2012", not even Liu Yifei."

"If you compare it with "2012", I really have no expectations."

"It's so funny, I feel so angry now!"

"Those Years" is being promoted by major media outlets, and its popularity is increasing day by day, and netizens are very cooperative.

Compared to Yang Mi's 800 million fans, Liu Yifei's fans at this time are terrifying.

"The gap is really big."

Yang Mi stared at the popularity of "Those Years" on Weibo and sighed slightly.

She doesn't need to promote "Far Cry" now, because under the attack of "Transformers 3" and "Harry Potter 7", no amount of promotion will help.

"Far Cry" received 9000 million, with no hope of breaking [-] million, but this is her personal success.

"Mimi, Director Chen has sent a letter, inviting you to audition for his new movie." Zeng Jia was extremely excited after receiving the message.

"Director Chen?" Yang Mi was a little disbelieving and asked again.

"That's right, it's Director Chen. Please clean up quickly and let's go back to the Imperial Capital."

Zeng Jiadu did not hesitate at all. Even though Brother Chen Kai failed several times, he is still a great director in China.

"Sister Jia, the question is, do I still have a film appointment?"

She has now been cast in four films, "Wu-Tang", "Butterfly Cemetery", "Turandot of China" and "The Wind Listener", and will also star opposite Tony Leung Chiu-wai.

"Ignore it for now. Watch it after the audition. Besides, you're not the heroine."

Zeng Jia urged, she had to hurry over at this time, otherwise she would be on the verge of tears if someone else snatched her role.
